    yes it is the car has been up and running for about 3 or 4 weeks now. i have the rhd ps computer in the car and rack. i also have a spare rhd rack however the shaft is broken in it but the senors and guts of it are good so im at the shop right now and i have switched the sensors out of the broken rack into the rack thats in the car, still same problem when i start it up and turn the steering wheel. it would be really helpful if i knew what the correct voltage at the rack is supposed to be. i put the meter on the 2 heavy gauge wires and got around 2.35 on both the green wire and the red. this is at idle ( i believe voltage and speed work together to adjust the steering sensitivity i think so i cant test the voltage other than at idle). the 3 wires that connect to the input shaft on the steering rack are metering at about 4.4-4.6. also do not know what those are supposed to be at. even with the left hand drive ps computer still getting the same results. im now about to start tracing the wires back through the harness just to make sure nothing is shorted or broken and such. if all else fails maybe i can find a shop or one of the dealerships that has the computer that will read the ps computer but i really dont wanna spend a hundred bucks or so for them to tell me " your power steering isnt working", i already know that.
